00:00Bandung's culinary scene never stops innovating.
00:16Amidst various familiar chicken dishes,
00:18presenting a unique culinary creation, namely chicken cobek kuah cikur.
00:23Yes, cikur is usually a complementary spice,
00:26presented as the main star in this event.
00:29A restaurant on Jalan Anggrek serves a menu of chicken cobek with cikur sauce.
00:34as one of its signature dishes.
00:37The manufacturing process still relies on a mortar and pestle,
00:40where red chilies or green chilies, shallots, garlic,
00:43and the cikur is ground in a mortar until it is slightly smooth.
00:47More cikur spices were deliberately added,
00:49so that the aroma and taste are stronger.
00:52Once smooth, then add spices such as salt,
00:55pepper and seasoning, then stir until evenly mixed.
00:59The final step, the ground spices are poured with hot water,
01:03and the cikur sauce mortar is ready to be served with fried chicken.
01:07This menu of chicken cobek with cikur sauce is deliberately presented
01:10to further highlight the aroma of Sundanese cuisine
01:12in the menu variations at this restaurant.
01:14Later we will highlight traditional Sundanese menus like that.
01:17Apart from our mainstay menu that we make at Ayam Sari Rasa,
01:21Our cikur menu has two choices, the cikur menu with green chili seasoning
01:25with red chili sauce like that.
01:27Not just ordinary fried chicken.
01:30This menu combines a crunchy texture, spicy taste, and authentic spice aroma.
01:35Even though the red and green chilies look prominent,
01:39However, the spicy taste offered is still acceptable to those who enjoy it.
01:42It tastes delicious, savory, and just the right amount of spiciness.
01:46So, for example, if you don't like spicy food, you can still feel the spicy sensation.
01:50Indeed, this menu is relatively new, having been launched last February.
01:54but it has become a visitor favorite.
01:56In one day, chicken cobek kuah cikur can sell 40 to 50 portions.
02:01It could even be more on weekends.
02:03Well, the menu has arrived: chicken, mortar, and cikur sauce.
02:07There are two choices of chili sauce or cikur sauce.
02:09There are red chilies and there are also green chilies.
02:11They say the green chili one is tastier. Let's try it, shall we?
02:13The unique thing about this menu is that cikur, which is usually just a complementary seasoning,
02:18processed into a spicy sauce that enriches the taste and is certainly appetizing.
02:23Well, this Cikur chicken soup menu is really suitable combined with rice, pepper, and salt.
02:28I'll continue eating, okay?
02:29A portion of this chicken cobek with cikur sauce is priced at only 25 thousand to 30 thousand rupiah.
02:37Still all about cikur culinary delights.
02:40Another culinary delight is served at a rice stall in the Dagopakar area, Bandung Regency.
02:46In this simple kitchen, it turns out there is a recipe that keeps the customers coming.
02:51namely cikur rice.
02:53The manufacturing process is relatively simple.
02:56Grind the cikur pieces with shallots and garlic until smooth.
03:00Then the spice mixture is roasted and fried with white rice until the spices are absorbed.
03:05The processing is similar to fried rice.
03:08The process doesn't take long and you can enjoy it straight away.
03:11This is the first time I've tried rice with cikur or nasi cikur, you know.
03:15Because usually cikur is in seblak, but in this case it is in rice.
03:18So if you just eat the rice, it already has a taste.
03:24But of course it will be even tastier and more delicious if you eat it with other foods.
03:28There is free-range chicken, then there is also fish, what is this, it is quite fried, right?
03:33Wow, this is the best.
03:34Let's try this, okay?
03:35Here here here, I want to make you drool.
03:38Well, let's eat.
03:42Excellent.
03:43Cikur rice has been served at this rice stall for almost 20 years.
03:57It's no wonder that many customers come again and again to enjoy it,
04:01who come from across generations from various regions.
04:03I rarely find cikur rice like this, and the taste is unique and I don't think I'll find it anywhere else.
04:12Because in Jakarta we don't find this kind of rice.
04:17Moreover, the combination of side dishes is very unique, very West Javanese.
04:21It is so popular that more than 10 kilograms of rice are finished in one day, especially on weekends.
04:27If it's more or less like that, Saturday and Sunday are two days, thank God there are always lots of people like that.
04:33Maybe around 5 kilos of it contains galangal, galangal.
04:36If you're having a problem with just the same amount of rice, it's more or less possible for 25 kilos or more.
04:42One portion of cikur rice is priced at 10 thousand rupiah.
